Although flavin-dependent halogenases (FDHs) are attractive biocatalysts, their practical applications limited because of low catalytic efficiency. Here, we investigated the reaction mechanisms and structures tryptophan 6-halogenase (Thal) from Streptomyces albogriseolus using stopped-flow, rapid-quench flow, quantum/mechanics molecular mechanics calculations, crystallography, detection intermediate (hypohalous acid [HOX]) liberation. We found that key flavin intermediate,...
Abstract Enzymatic electrophilic halogenation is a mild tool for functionalization of diverse organic compounds. Only few groups native halogenases are capable catalyzing such reaction. In this study, we used mechanism‐guided strategy to discover the activity catalyzed by non‐native halogenases. As ability form hypohalous acid (HOX) key halogenation, flavin‐dependent monooxygenases/oxidases forming C4a‐hydroperoxyflavin (Fl C4a‐OOH ), as dehalogenase, hydroxylases, luciferase and...
Anthraquinone-fused enediynes are anticancer natural products featuring a DNA-intercalating anthraquinone moiety. Despite recent insights into anthraquinone-fused enediyne (AQE) biosynthesis, the enzymatic steps involved in biogenesis remain to be elucidated. Through combination of
